In the 34th round of the 2024/25 Serie A season, Lazio tied Parma 2-2 after falling behind by 2 goals thanks to Pedro's 2 goals. Baroni said in an interview that the fighting spirit of never giving up is very important, and emphasized that the team needs such a fighting spirit.

Just 3 minutes into the game, Valeri sent a cross, and Jacob Ondreka pushed the ball into the goal in the penalty area, helping Parma get off to a dream start with a score of 1-0. At the beginning of the second half, Jacob Ondreka regained the ball and shot from the top of the penalty area, helping Parma expand its lead to 2-0.

In the 79th minute, Luca Pellegrini made a lob pass to the penalty area, and Pedro, who came on as a substitute, scored in the melee, helping Lazio to tie the score 1-2. In the 84th minute, Luca Pellegrini passed the ball, and Pedro jumped up in the penalty area to score a header, helping Lazio to tie the score 2-2.

In the end, Lazio tied Parma 2-2 at home. After 2 wins and 3 draws in the last 5 rounds, Lazio is currently ranked 7th in the standings with 60 points, 2 points behind Juventus in 4th place, so there is still some chance to fight for a European qualification.

Lazio coach Baroni reviewed the game and said, “Losing the ball after two minutes of the game will make you feel heavy psychologically, and losing the second goal at the beginning of the second half due to two consecutive deflections felt like our luck had completely turned against us. In any case, the team tried to deal with it, but we did not meet the requirements in terms of running speed and passing rhythm.”

“After the substitutions, we finally picked up the tempo and I hope to build on our performance in the last half hour. We want to win, especially in front of our home fans.”

Baroni pointed out, "The last 30 minutes are what we really look like. We played with rhythm, determination and ambition. I am also happy for Pedro's two goals. He is really limitless. Parma was obviously wasting time in the final stage, but we should also do better in dealing with long balls."

"I'm always thinking about how to make the players better. Now is the final sprint of the season. We will stick to the end and will not give up. From falling behind 0-2 to equalizing the score, it proves that this team will never give up, which is very important because we need this fighting spirit."

In addition, Baroni also said, "We have been working hard to improve, but this is our 48th game this season. We will analyze the problem, but I want to emphasize that not every team can tie the score when they are 0-2 behind like us. This fighting spirit is what we need to continue to consolidate."
